Haven't been for a few days and boy oh boy the plot has changed soooooo much in a short time.
The early potatoes are flowering, the onions needed weeding as did the germinated parsnips bed.
The Brussels and cabbage are coming along a treat and the mangetout are climbing up the netting.
Weeded raspberry bed and strawberry barrels, thinned carrots and beetroot and stood back and realised that it's all go from now on!!

Planted out my climbing beans and replaced the automatic window opener on the potting shed.

Went to the plot last night, planted out another courgette, pumpkins ans kidney beans all provided by SHMBO's work colleague  all surplus to requirements but had to be put in the plot!
Made her dig a spare bit of ground to put the beans in, that should teach her 
Did some weeding and had fish & chips on the plot followed by a cup of coffee, yummy!

Weeded the autumn planted garlic which was almost lost in a sea of chickweed   
Rebuilt the raised bed I fix about a fortnight ago, I should have done it properly the first time.
Started to weed the raspberries but was beaten back by some sneaky nettles - I still can't feel my finger tips

Put out the last of my squash as they were starting to suffer in pots. The courgettes I moved down last week are thriving so I'm not worried.

Weeded a couple of paths and the oca bed - they are growing well now

Planted out the broccoli (calabrese) and built the net cage to cover it. Weeded the onions/shallots and gave them a liquid feed (and also the leeks still in their tray). Young helper sowed some more French beans to replace those recently eaten by slug/snail  .  Noticed that some of the potatoes (Sharpe's Express and Charlotte) are getting flower buds  .

Hi flowertot. What sid you feed your onions and shallots with? and why? I'm wondering about giving mine a boost.

[snowdrops]

Planted my lettuce,little gem,webs,iceberg & a new one heritage I think it was called,it's red . Cleared the brassicas,the purple sprouting was going woody & I've had so much I'm tired of it. Then dug over half of that bed. Had 2 cups of tea, & showed son my new path that hubby had put down for me last week.

Weeding ,weeding and more weeding .sowed Fennel and thinned out carrots , lettuce , beetroot and coriander.Basil failed so have two rows to reseed . Looking at getting the tomatoes in to the raised beds , but still being patience because of the weather..

Hi flowertot. What sid you feed your onions and shallots with? and why? I'm wondering about giving mine a boost.

Hi Steve. I used Miraclegro all purpose liquid feed (it's a concentrate so I dilute it). I have very free draining soil on my allotment which needs nutrients added.  I understand it's not good to dig manure in when you plant onions so instead I use a liquid feed every now and again to give them a little boost.

I had a choice, plot or front garden, front garden won, it has now been weeded and the huge bamboo removed, roots were up to 5m from the main plant.

Went down this afternoon, planted out the cauliflowers I bought from the plant sale at the allotment shop yesterday. Sorted out the courgette and squash which I'm passing on to my son for his community allotment and took them home to be delivered tomorrow, then watered onions and beans even though the skies were heavy and grey, but it still hasn't rained 3 hours later so just as well I did.

Spent yesterday and today putting up greenhouse with OH in back garden. Hard work!
Yesterday had slow start getting head round instructions but finished separate parts.
Today put it all together quite quickly but putting polycarbonate sheets in was awful 
Very sore fingers now.
Pegged to grass at mo but tomorrow fastening it to base and base to concrete slabs.
Tuesday going for grow bags and then tomatoes can be moved into it.
At moment too tired to feel excited but am sure that will return when it's properly set up ready and my fingers have recovered
